Recipe 13: CHICKEN CHAPLUPAS (main dish)

SOURCE:  Another goodie from my Aunt Joy.  She made these one time and the dish was licked clean.
My mom got the recipe from her and has made these on many occasions. People cant help but like these. The wonderful flavor, the creaminess, the ooey gooey perfection...
This is an easy recipe, no slaving in the kitchen for hours on end. It is, however, high in fat and lots of cheese and sour cream and all the other good things in life that make the world go round.  So be aware.
